It has been more than a year since I last saw Qi Jing.
During this period, I haven't heard any news from him. How can I not be happy now that I suddenly saw a letter from him?
Qi Yu opened the seal with excitement, unfolded it, and saw the letter written: Brother Shaocheng, it is like seeing each other... Foolish brother Qi Jing and his humble wife Fang Ruojiao came to worship.
Haha, he is indeed married.
This woman named Fang Ruojiao is probably the pretty girl who was the one who caught her son-in-law.
It should be unmistakable.
As cowardly as Qi Jing was at that time, would he dare to change to another one?
This letter has about a thousand words and is quite large.
Between the lines, the nostalgia for the past is revealed, which shows its sincerity.
In addition to expressing his longing, the letter also introduced two things in detail.
First of all, there are family matters. He got married last year, and his wife Fang later became pregnant and is currently expecting a baby.
In addition to his family, he also talked about his current situation.
On the third day after he got married, he really followed his wife south.
What to do?
Fight against Japan!
From this, he embarked on the road of military service.
At first, he worked as a writing clerk in the military camp, doing some trivial copywriting tasks.
This arrangement is quite suitable.
Most of the lieutenants in the army were rugged men, and few were good at writing. However, Qi Jing had a reputation as a civil servant and was a rare literate man.
Is always shining gold.
This sentence is absolutely correct.
It didn't take long for the military commander to notice Qi Jing's proficiency in martial arts.
Then I thought, how could such a fierce general be wasted doing nothing but writing and writing?
Therefore, he was promoted to a junior military attaché.
However, in less than half a year, Qi Jing was highly regarded for his bravery and proficiency in battle, and he took the lead in several subsequent great victories, building momentum and defeating the Japanese pirates.
Later, because of his outstanding military exploits, he was promoted to the post of Commander-in-Chief, and became a seventh-grade military attaché.
Alas!
Qi Jing is prosperous!
He is an official now!
Qi Yu sighed quietly, feeling a little worried about gains and losses.
The two met at a young age and started from the same starting point. Now they have become officials, but they are just a small official.
Differs greatly.
However, this feeling of envy only existed for a moment, and then disappeared.
Yes, you have to stick to your beliefs.
Every life path is different, and so is everyone.
The right answer is to take your own life path well.
Qi Yu pulled back his thoughts and continued reading the letter...
Qi Jing also introduced the progress of the anti-Japanese war.
The letter states that although our army has achieved initial victory, it has also paid a heavy price.
The price here refers to the death of many people.
Japanese pirates are more cunning and cruel than imagined.
They are good at guerrilla raids, and they advance and retreat quickly in action, making them difficult to guard against.
In addition, the Fuso sword they used was long, sharp, and light in weight, giving them an upper hand in the confrontation.
According to Qi Jing's words, under that sharp Fusang knife, all the blood of my heroic spirit was shed.
Qi Jing was also seriously injured by this sword.
…
The imperial court also attached great importance to this. During the fierce battle, the emperor even sent people from the Ministry of Etiquette to reward the troops, and also asked that we must display the backbone, arrogance, and domineering spirit of our court.
That night, all the soldiers in the army drank happily and sang "Qin Feng Wu Yi" around the campfire...
How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, I repaired my sword and spear. I share the same enemy with you! . . .
The loud war song, the blood-stained armor, and the tears left by men when burying their comrades...
Suddenly.
Qi Yu felt that Qi Jing was no longer the Qi Jing he used to be, he was now a warrior.
His heroic and heroic spirit also deeply infected me.
yes!
The rise and fall, everyone is responsible!
It seems like I should do something...
Qi Yu had nothing but hatred for the Fusang Kingdom. To describe it as eating its flesh raw, knocking its bones and sucking out its marrow, was not an exaggeration!
Well...the Fuso knife they use!
Is it really that powerful?
Suddenly, Qi Yu's mind flashed, and a legendary weapon appeared!
Wolf fang!
According to records in later history books, this strange weapon once defeated powerful enemies and shone brightly on the battlefield.
Moreover, this tool is specially designed to handle Fuso knife.
It's a big killer!
In my memory, this bamboo chopper is made of large moso bamboo, one to five or six feet long, with branches connected to the four sides, and a scaled knife attached to it. It has great lethality.
Just imagine, if our soldiers could be equipped with this weapon, wouldn't killing Japanese pirates be like chopping vegetables?
Haha, just thinking about it makes people excited!
However, when I think about it carefully, I feel melancholy.
It’s a bit difficult to implement!
why?
According to the current system of our government, no one can make weapons privately, otherwise he will be punished for treason.
In other words, if you want the army to be equipped with a large number of these spikes, the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court must take over mass production.
So the question is, will the Ministry of Industry do this job?
It’s really hard to say.
Let’s analyze it from the process first.
If you want to build this fort, you must first get approval from the Ministry of War. After they review and approve it, it will be submitted to the cabinet for approval, and then it will be sent to the emperor for review.
If the emperor thinks the idea is good, he will approve it. If he thinks it is not good, it will die.
Assuming that the emperor passes this test, it will be handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs for budgeting. If the treasury is full, it will allocate funds. Only after the money is in place, the Ministry of Industry will take over the construction. After the construction is completed, the Ministry of Household Affairs will also conduct inspection and acceptance. Only when there are no problems will they be transported to the front line and equipped for the soldiers.
This process is not as long as usual, and every level is difficult to pass.
Of course, the biggest key depends on whether the emperor approves it. If he doesn't approve it, there is no need to think about other aspects.
In addition to the above factors, there is another big problem.
That is, how can we get this fantastic idea up to the Ministry of War?
The Ministry of War is the first level.
Now that I am just a civil servant, I have no right to speak. How can I go forward?
There is no way!
However, if you don’t play it, wouldn’t it be nothing but regret?
Got it!
Why not make use of your relationship with Governor Lu and use his mouth to reach the center?
This method is still feasible!
Lu Boxuan and Meng Lanshan are old friends, so he will definitely help with such a small favor.
Besides, this matter is beneficial and harmless to him, and there is no risk.
If it succeeds, Governor Lu will be rewarded by the court for his meritorious service. If it fails, he won't lose anything, so why not?
The key point is that he holds an important position as governor and is a veritable feudal official with a strong voice.
That's it.
Later, Qi Yu wrote a long letter to Lu Boxuan to clarify his thoughts.
As for the wolf's fang, I also used a marker to sketch it into a picture for easier understanding.
Whether this matter can be successful or not depends on Governor Lu's sharp tongue.
